ThingMaker

Mattel ThingMaker is a 3D printer (replicator) for kiddies that retails for a mere three hundred dollars. The fact that someone will figure out how to use this thing to print guns, and the fact that that fact will drive gun-grabbing leftoids out of their skulls with impotent rage makes me smile. In fact, I might buy one just to see if I can print a gun with it. Then I'll print a bunch of happy little smiling rainbow unicorns and use the printed gun to murder them. Maybe I can print a flamethrower...
